I just wanted to step in, if I may," manager Eddie Howe said while Gillespie was speaking to NUFCTV. The work this guy has put in this season has just been incredible and too often we'll always talk about the players who are playing but never enough about the players who aren't playing who contribute so much and Mark is one of those. His attitude to training is ridiculous every day.
You're on the end of a lot of shots aren't you? Day in, day out, he's always there for the players to help them get better and you need a goalkeeper who is going to be there and train every day and be as consistent as Mark is.
Those experiences for Mark, I'm so pleased for him because of what he gives every day. There are a lot of players like Mark in the squad that characterise our success. I just wanted to say that to Mark and share that moment with him."
